Southampton paid €8.0m for Daniel Peretz. Against the club's own history of paying for goalkeepers, that is the 5th largest such fee on record.
| Player | From | Fee | Season |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aaron Ramsdale | Arsenal | €21.4m | 2024/25 |
| Gavin Bazunu | Man City U21 | €14.0m | 2022/23 |
| Fraser Forster | Celtic | €12.5m | 2014/15 |
| Angus Gunn | Man City | €11.3m | 2018/19 |
| Alex McCarthy | Crystal Palace | €4.7m | 2016/17 |
| Paulo Gazzaniga | Gillingham | €3.1m | 2012/13 |
A club's own precedent is the only fair yardstick for whether a fee is a departure for it. A number that looks enormous league-wide can be routine for one buyer, and a modest one can be a record for another.
